OK, This motor is new to me and has obviously been played with. The previous owner told me that the carbs were gone through by a "certified technician". That's great, but the number 3 carb is barfing out fuel. Obviously the needle valve is stuck open. So I pulled the carb and did a tear down and clean and now it is happy and running OK. I plan to get into the others this weekend and do a sync and link to make sure some other "certified technician" didn't screw something up.
HERE'S MY QUESTION: while I was messin with the carb I noticed the enrichment solenoid looked wierd like the fuel lines were crossed. I looked in the manual, but I can't tell the difference. Should the top carburetor fuel line go into the top nozzle of the solenoid? If so what is the orientation of the wires?
Pictures would be VERY helpful
Thanks for your time!
